I forgot to mention one other interesting 'feature' of this lens. It has a little thumb screw to adjust stiffness of the zoom action, or simply lock it at a chosen focal length. A slightly kludgy solution to the problem of zoom 'creep', but very effective. On this lens, the bang as the zoom ring and all the attached glass and metal hit the end would be substantial. This way you can adjust it so you can point it up or let it hang down at any temperature without having it change focal length.

The Tokina ATX 150-500/5.6 lens is a real nice piece.
